Mission was the Rurh bridgehead so i thought this would be a short game

I deployed in my Gepards and inf down and held the Leo's in ambush.

E.German Turn 1

E.Germans redployed T-72's on the right flank and T-55's on the left one BMP's rush up the road and park on the obj.

W.German Turn 1
No reserves

Tornadoes show up and go for T-55's. Leo's pop right in front of T-72's and fire away knocking out 3 milan knock out one more. Gepards and inf decamate the BmP's and pin down the inf. Tornadoes take out half of the T-55's.

E.German Turn 2

Inf don't unpin T-55's move up and take out one marder T-72's redeploy to take out Leo's. To my luck every thing goes wrong nothing hits and if it hits it does nothing.

W.German Turn 2
Reserves Luchs

Luchs show up in the side of shilkas destroying 3 but the last one stands. Leo's continue the duel against T72 knocking out a few more. Gepards and inf mow down some more inf and BmP.

E.German Turn 3

Shilka takeout one luch the other one stands and he finaly gets some side shots on Leo's but only one hit and he is out. Inf still pinned.

W.German Turn 3
Night is upon us.

Another set of luch's and still fortune favors me getting them behind arty and killing two of them. Tornadoes sow up to finish T-55's but two still survive. Leo's finish the T-72's and the last luck take put the last shilka. Every thing is going my way Gepards and inf continue to fire at pinned down inf.

E.German Turn 4

The last hurrah. T-55's move up and take out some marders arty turn the guns on luch's and take out one the other one see's his friend blow up and runs away. Inf still pinned.

W.German Turn 4

Last of my reserves come on the table and Tornadoes show up again finding new targets this time and go for the arty hitting everyone and destroying all but 2 witch run away. Leo's take out one T-55 and Gepards and inf continue to shoot at inf.

E.German Turn 5

Nothing left but one T-55 and inf.T-55 take out one Gepard.

W.German Turn 5

I killed everything that was left.

This was a fun game but i thougt i would loose but every thing i did somehow worked out and for my opponent nothing worked. (Same thing happend to me while i was fighting Red Alert a few weeks ago)

5-2 win
